I FEEL THEIR EYES WATCHING ME

POORLY MASKED CURIOUSITY

HANDS CLASPED BEHIND MY BACK

EMOTIONS,THEY THINK I LACK

I AM THE FIRST VULCAN THEY HAVE EVER SEEN

THE FIRST LIVING HYBRED VULCAN THERE'S EVER BEEN

HERE,WITH THIS HUMAN CREW

MY DUTY IS ALL I WISH TO DO.

THE DOCTOR TRIES TO TEASE ME

A BREAK IN MY BARRIERS HE HOPES TO SEE

THE CAPTAIN ENDEVOURS TO BE MY FRIEND

BUT HOW CAN VULCAN RULES I BEND?

I MUST CONTINUE MY CHOSEN WAY

LOGICAL AND DETACHED UNTIL THE DAY

UNTIL ALL WILL SEE WHAT I AM

A WHOLE,TRUE VULCAN

BUT AS HAZEL EYES SMILE AT ME

I KNOW THIS MAN HAS THE KEY

TO REACH THE PART DEEP INSIDE

THE HUMAN HEART I TRY TO HIDE.

T'PAU

WAS IT WORTH IT?  VULCAN'S SON

WAS IT WORTH THE THINGS YOU'VE DONE?

LEFT YOUR BIRTHRIGHT,AND YOUR HOME

DISTANT PLANETS AND STARS TO ROAM

GONE FROM US ,FAR AWAY

NEVER HEEDING WHAT I HAD TO SAY

I TRIED TO DETURE THE HUMAN WAY

BUT NOTHING I SAID WOULD SWAY

YOU FROM YOUR CHOSEN PATH-

IGNORING ALL OF SAREK'S WRATH

THE RIFT IS NOW DEEP AND WIDE

NOW YOU HAVE A HUMAN AT YOUR SIDE

YOU,A VULCAN,COOL ,CALM

WILL THIS HUMAN DO YOU HARM,?

BREAK THE BARRIERS OF LOGIC AWAY

MAKE YOU INTO A FULL HUMAN SOMEDAY?

WITH GREAT INTEREST I WAIT TO SEE

SPOCK

YOU FRIGHTEN ME,MY VULCAN BRIDE

I FEAR YOU WILL SEE MY HUMAN SIDE

I WISH THAT I COULD RUN AWAY

BUT THIS IS THE CHOSEN DAY

WHEN T'PAU WILL JOIN OUR MINDS

WITH THE LINK THAT FINALLY BINDS

YOU TO ME,AND ME TO YOU

SO THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO

AT SEVEN I AM STILL A CHILD

SO THE DEMANDS AT THIS TIME ARE MILD

BUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN I AM A MAN?

I MUST TRY TO CONTROL AS BEST I CAN

HOPE THIS CURSED HUMAN PART

WILL REMAIN A SECRET IN MY HEART

THIS WHOLE AFFAIR IS NOT OF MY MAKING

I HOPE NOONE SEES MY HANDS ARE SHAKING

I MUST NOT SHAME MY FAMILY

BUT ATTEMPT TO ATTAIN MATURITY

MAKING FATHER PROUD OF ME

A FATHER'S PLEA

SON OF Vulcan YOU MADE YOUR CHOICE

YOU WOULD NOT LISTEN TO MY VOICE

A PLEA FOR UNDERSTANDING

A CAREER CHOICE,EVER DEMANDING

I TRIED TO GUIDE YOUR WAY

BUT YOUR HUMAN HALF CALLED YOU AWAY

NOW,YOU ARE TORN IN TWO

AND THERE IS LITTLE I CAN DO

EXCEPT HOPE VULCAN LOGIC WILL BE ENOUGH

FOR HUMAN EMOTIONS TO REBUFF

COME MY SON,TO THE HEIGHTS OF GOL

FORSAKE THAT CAPTAIN FROM PLANET SOL

I FEEL HIS INFLUENCE EVER REACHING

SPOCK COME AND RENEW YOUR VULCAN TEACHING

ONCE I SAID 'I HAVE NO SON'

I REALIZE NOW IT IS THE WORST THING I HAVE EVER DONE

I DROVE YOU AWAY

WHEN ALL I WANTED TO DO, WAS BEG YOU TO STAY.

Join the Leonard Nimoy Fan Club

It's the most logical thing to do

Forget your wives and children

They mean nothing to you

Join the Leonard Nimoy Fan Club

And visit the distant stars

Forget your boss and the money you've lost

and take a stroll on Mars.

Join the Leonard Nimoy Fan Club

Put on your plastic ears

Distort your hand into a uncomfortable shape

And give Leonard Nimoy three cheers!

Leonard Nimoy is a flawless gem

With which of our likes cannot compare

If he were to get up and leave us

We would wallow in our despair

So join the Leonard Nimoy Fan Club

That we might rise up and name our new king

Crown him with a crown of gold

And to his presence we will continue to sing !

If it Pleases The Court

            

I had no name then, I was no person at all,

This may sound very strange to you,

My family dead, I was confined to a death camp,

The name that they called me was 'Jew'.

I've fought long and hard to have recognised; this sin,

I was tested right up to the line,

You've accepted the truth, the Holocaust happened,

My name ,sir, is Mel Mermelstein

HOLDER  OF MY HEART

Is it logical to yearn for red skies    ?

or the darkness of your eyes ?

Is it wrong to miss the warm desert air on my cheek?

or the feel of hair so sleek ?

The soft sound of robes as they brush the sand ?

or the quietness of the land ?

Is it against Surek's teachings to feel such things ?

or the loneliness exile brings ?

When these feelings start

I bury them deep within my heart

no emotions do I ever show

only you will ever know

Son of Sarek, do you feel my pain?

for you have entered my thoughts again

oh will I ever be free?

from these emotions that torment me.

I AM A LITTLE TRIBBLE

FURRY AS CAN BE

ONE THING I CANNOT STAND IS

A KLINGON NEXT TO ME

THE BROKEN HEART

As I enter the quietness of your room,

and adjust my eyes to the gloom

I see your head,bowed in sleep

crowned by hair always sleek

Thin body breathing rhythmically slow

making it hard to really know

if true life still beats in that wiry frame

but as I approach, whispering your name

you stir, admidst the piles of work

instantly awake 'Captain Kirk?'

'No ,my son it is only me'

dark eyes fight tears I see

your head drops to hide the pain.

Will you ever be happy again?

Now as you await the Gol Master's call

as if that will answer all-

the troubles between you and him-

he who left you to sink or swim

Back on his Earth, does he even give you a thought?

or the heartbreak he has bought?

he took his promotion but at such a cost

does he know? or even care? what he has lost?

Leonard Nimoy

I know of a legend that trekkies all do know

about the greatest man in Star Trek history

the USS Enterprise has ever flown.

He came from Vulcan

and was listed as science officer Mr. Spock

and worked around the clock with Captain Kirk

out on the space dock.

With all types of aliens big and small

had arose from the depths to attack them all,

while helmsman Sulu and helmsman Chekov

were firing phasers at the helm

trying to destroy every speck of the ships

based on the realms.

So while at the same time,

Lietenant Uhurra would get signals from the other ships

there wasn't nothing better

than her singing from those black, shiny lips.

But Leonard Nimoy and Mr. Shatner

were as great as can be, too,

when they would sing back in the 70's

right from out of the blue.

And while neither one of them sang at the same time

and place,

it was always nice to hear their singing voices

from the edges of outer space.

So go boldly go where no singer has gone before

from out on the stage and out on the dock of the floor

is Leonard Nimoy and Bill Shatner singing solo with each other like any other friendly singer, brother to brother.

And while it took me years to find Nimoy in Marco Polo

it's still much more funner listening to him on my iPod

with every song and solo.

Like Bilbo Baggins and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,

it's great to write this poem for you

as I keep goin' and rhymin'.

With all the thanks you have brought me

and other fans alike

we know you can act real well

as we all sit here on our bikes.

Mission Impossible was something else

even though you only acted in half of them.

But I followed them right to the bone

and up into the land of Lem.

While you and your associates are the best across this land

there's every rightful privacy that you have

on these great white grains of sand.

So up in the lands of Los Angeles

is a man that brings so much joy

to every trekkie in this nation

whether he's a girl or a boy.

And while the Klingons and Romulons and Ferrengie and Cardassians are a race of other planets,

the Vulcans are the most serious

and protective of their people and their granites.

So while the Enterprise goes nowhere where no man has gone before,

Leonard Nimoy is always willing to embark on out that energizing door

where he ends up on the planet with all of his professional crew

fighting with their phasers with their lasers

and fighting 'til their job is through.

Whether they shoot at monsters or Klingons or whoever gets in their way,

Nimoy and his crew won't stop until they're through

until they all have saved the day.

Then they stand to rise to return to the Enterprise,

after Sulu has safely said to energize.

Then they'll return to that energizing room right during the phase of our earth's full moon.

And then things will be back to normal

after Nimoy's crew had done their duty by law and order

then everyone can safely relax like a funny little lobster,

and remember what you always say, Nimoy:

"Live long and prosper."
